dc.description.abstractThe present study was done with the objectives of a clinical appraisal of the diagnosis and management of thoracic disorders in dogs and to record prevalence of thoracic disorders in dogs. The dogs suspected of thoracic disorders underwent detailed clinical, laboratory, and radiological examination and the disorders were categorized based upon their anatomical location into 4 types; disorders of the extra thoracic area, the parenchyma, the pleural space, and the mediastinum. Lung patterns which were associated with different thoracic disorders found in this study were; alveolar, interstitial, bronchial, vascular and mixed. Alveolar pattern was the most common lung pattern followed by interstitial and bronchial pattern. The air bronchograms were the most common radiographic feature identified in all cases of alveolar pattern (100%), followed by lobar sign (62.5%) and silhouette effect (79.1%). In the bronchial pattern ‘Dough nut’ sign was the most predominant radiographic feature and was present in all 10 cases (100%) while ‘tram lines’ was seen in only 3 cases (30%). Structured miliary interstitial pattern was observed in 3 (13.6%), nodular in 9 (40.9%), masses in 6 (27.7%), and cavitary lesion in 1(4.5%) dog. Disorders of lung parenchyma comprised 52.6% of overall thoracic disorders followed by mediastinum and pleural space The overall regional incidence of thoracic disorders in dog was 4.05% with higher incidence rate in males (4.14%) than females (3.8%). %). Majority of disorders were found in the senile group (52.7%) followed by adults (38.8%) and juvenile (13.1%) and lung tumours were the predominant thoracic disorder (23.6%) followed by pneumonia (18.42%), cardiomegaly (17.1), and pneumothorax and bronchitis (7.89% each).en_US
